My buddy had the Green Hemi Cuda BS23R0B100010.  I wonder if he still has a copy of the Build Sheet?  Maybe we can see both these Build Sheets and see which car really went down the line first?   

IMO, not going to get anywhere close to that asking price on the Hemi Cuda.     That's Hemi Conv money.

$3M is a bit crazy  but it is down from the $4.5M he was asking

isn't BS23R0B100010 the pre-production ad car & "rallye red"?
I'd bet BS23R0B100003 pre-dates it by weeks if not months - and use to be on display at the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum in Auburn, IN - wonder if it is still there?  It would be cool to see up close.

Well it does say OBO in the ad, so maybe he will knock some zeros off

EF8 if I recall.  Pretty sure 100010 was EF8.    It went through Barrett Jackson about 12 years ago.  I think it brought about $450,000.

Looks like I'm a few dollars short

Now I got to ask my buddy what his VIN was on his EF8 Cuda.

The red one got my blood boiling back in the day.

searched the internet & found this

craigslist ad's phone number is Indiana (not NY) & pictured sign still states Gary Dodane as "owner"

[Cuda Cody]

Yup, that was his Red FE5 Hemi Cuda 100010.  He also had a Green Hemi too that is why I was remembering wrong.  But it was my buddy that sold that red FE5 car at BJ in 2005.

Visited here today and did not expect to find such history !
What great museums, start with the Auburn Cord Dusenberg Museum ,then to the National Auto and Truck Museum!
I'm kicking myself as I didn't read the sign board to realize the significance of this Hemi !
